I'm writing a risk assessment for cleaning mouse faeces (whilst awaiting pest control) as we have an infestation at work. I was wondering if anyone has carried out a similar task and had an assessment I could have a peek at? I'm aware of Hantavirus and possible contagion via inhalation and ingestion but was wondering if there's anything I haven't picked up on so far...

There is also Lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus (LCMV)... this list might help to look through... http://www.hpa.org.uk/To...s/TableZoonoticDiseases/
